A LONG Story called SYNCHRONICITY

SYNCHRONICITY  

WOW what a word this is… and so very powerful in so many ways…  I guess it all started on Tuesday of this week… I was trying to clean up my studio and realized that my paper bins were over flowing… you see when I have low energy I will pick up a paint brush and make background papers… or pick up a spray bottle and mist some backgrounds… I love them all… but I doubt I will ever use them all the way that I thought I would.. so I decided to make a ‘few’ journals with the papers…

That was Tuesday… 

On Wednesday we went shopping up the mountain and I had the opportunity of watching people as they passed me …  I love people watching…  especially in this place… as there are all walks of life… and each person is so very interesting to me…  So this very elegant woman passed me and I told her that I thought she was Beautiful… which she was…  She had beautiful dark skin that was so warm and rich looking…  and she had on the most glorious colors.... they were tan, apricot, lime green with a touch of turquoise and a long  long, long pearl necklace that almost reached here knees…  and she was tall…  so this necklace was very long… Oh she was so stunning.. I can still see here in my minds eye..

That was Wednesday    

Yesterday I started to cut my paper for the journals... and created a huge mess... and so I took a break from that and created a larger mess and made a few things...  LOL.. in other words I had FUN!!!! 

I made this page for one of my New Journals... and loved it...  

 In one of the new Journals I am going to do a page a day and it is going to be my MOOD or feeling for the DAY... so yesterday I was trying to go with the FLOW of things... and totally enjoy all ... and yet feed my inner feelings... I even took a needed nap!!!  And totally enjoyed that too.. yikes... what a fun day... 


My hubby and I made dinner together ... and sat and talked and ate something that we hadn't had in YEARS...  enjoying that too...  
This morning I went to check on a few sites... and low and behold I found that  Julie at Blazer Designs had been  making journals the same way as I was making them ... WOW... SYNCHRONICITY.... and then I noticed that she had posted a space for entering a journal page... which I did... and then I noticed that the gal from the ART Journal CAFE  
also had an entry... and I hadnt' checked on that site in a few days...  so upon checking that site low and behold there were the colors of the woman on Wednesday...  WOW... SYNCHRONICITY   PLUS... 

So with that story all told... you can understand a little bit better why I have pictures of all these journals... LOL... I had a lot of paper and cut it into sizes perfect for me to journal on...  but I did put some of the papers back... as I might need them for other things too.. LOL... oh come on... I have to save a few things... don't I ???  

So here are the undecorated journals..   
 

 But when you open them... they all have different pages in them...  as the papers are all originals... and all ready to be journaled on.. oh what fun I am going to have... 

Sprays, masking, dribbles, you name it... I have papers that prove I have done it...  and then again some other things too...  

All fun and I love them all..   

Each one unique... 
Different colors... 


Different feelings... 

And maybe if I choose not to journal on a page or two.. .that will be okay too..  since they are mine... I can do with them as I please... wow... such a fun thing...  

 So onto the Challenge at the Art Journal Cafe...  


I used the colors... as I had been wanting to use these colors since I had seen this stunning woman the other day...  but I had to add a few things...   The PEARL is the paint dabber I used too...  Oh when you are in SYNCHRONICITY you do it all over the place... I wonder how many other people have been having synchronicity all day today too... I know that my hubby and I have been all day long...  amazing...  I love it too...  I hope that Julie and also the gal over at the ART JOURNAL CAFE read this...  I wonder what made them do the things that they did... color wise and to make journals with old painted papers...  FUN HUH??? 

 I decided to just use the colors and the WORD... my word for the DAY... to say the least...  

 I had to use a page that I had started a long time ago on this same color challenge too...  so here is that one...  with the pearls... 

 It all began like this...  


And then I kept on adding colors and playing with it...  

 And then this is what I came up with...  I added the pearls and was done...  other than adding todays word

SYNCHRONICITY.... 

Hope you have a wonderful day...  enjoy it all...  I am... as you can tell... 

Thanks for taking the time to read all this... and also for stopping over to see my play results...  
Love, Light and Peace... Bonnie
